One hundred and fifty human figures could be seen entering the 31th floor, they marched through the huge dark corridor while keeping their vigilance. They walked along the corridor carefully and slowly until suddenly, they heard loud sounds from the distance.

Thump. Thump. Thump

Through the dark corridor, they could barely see several figures approaching them. Alex saw the approaching enemy and instructed the group to stop. His group immediately halted as if the time had stopped when they heard his instruction, except for Evan and his people who took a while to realize the situation.

"The trolls have come! Everybody prepare for battle!"

[Cave Troll]

This is a group of a dozen large creatures at least five times the size of humans. Their whole body was covered with fur except for their hands and feet. The creatures had large heads, large broad shoulders, hunched backs, and long arms, which made them look very terrifying.. The only drawback they had was their short legs but even so, the shortest among the group still stood at least 4 meters tall. When a troll walked, even though it was not fast, each step would shake the ground. And with a group of them approaching Alex and his group, their stomps sounded and felt like a 6 magnitude earthquake coming towards them.

Seeing the situation, Evan quickly approached Alex.

"Alex, what should we do?" Evan said in panic. "Should we separate in groups of ten and gang up on them one by one? 

Evan had told Alex that 2 months ago they had already tried to clear the 31st floor with all their best Sky realm fighters. But unfortunately, they failed and suffered heavy casualties. The memories of that time still frightened him, which is why Evan suggested this idea.

"Don't worry, Evan! You and your people can just stay back and watch us!" Alex said confidently.

"But Al.."

Before Evan could finish his words, Alex had already dashed forward into the group of trolls. Seeing his friend's craziness, Evan was terrified and could not help but to shout.

"Alex !! You crazy!!"

Alex used his [Hexagram technique - stage 4] and charged towards the middle of the group by himself. Before he reached the trolls, he quickly cast several [Light Missile] spells to the crowd, followed with the [Blind] spell. Missile-like light rays traveled through the air in a curve line and struck the trolls. It could be seen that the spell is far more than enough to hurt the trolls but it has served its purpose as a distraction.

Alex's true objective is coming right after the spells diverted the trolls' attention. A very bright sharp light blinded the group of trolls as they were busy blocking the [Light missile] attack. Taking advantage of the existing opening, Alex swiftly drew his tier 3 sword and activated its ability [Light Pulse]. Layers of light were seen coating the sword as he leaped onto the shoulders of one of the trolls and quickly stabbed it.

The stabbed troll instantly screamed in pain and tried to catch Alex with both of its arms. Unfortunately for it, Alex quickly jumped off its shoulder, dodging its grasp. Alex nimbly landed on the ground as he swiftly took his stance and slashed his sword towards the creature's weakest part, its small knee that supported its massive body.

Splatt!!

Alex's level 35 Sky realm strength combined with the [Light Pulse] coated tier 3 sword managed to cut one of the troll's legs. The troll shrieked as its leg cut off and fell, crashing to another troll next to it.

Seeing the one-legged troll fall, Alex quickly bolted towards the next troll. He did not need to finish the crippled troll, others could easily take care of it on his behalf. Jumping towards his target, Alex pulled out [Strokes] and directly swung both swords and slashed the troll, creating a huge x mark on the troll's body.

The troll's 5 centimeters thick skin was cut by Alex's swords, with the wound made by Strokes about twice deeper. With such a heavy injury, the second troll also immediately dropped to the ground in pain, not moving.

Everyone's eyes bulged in disbelief as they watched Alex easily dispatch two trolls in a short amount of time, especially Evan and his Australian friend.

Alex was not trying to impress anyone. He just wanted to test his strength and his new swords. Each of these trolls possessed strength and defense equivalent to a high level Sky realm Knight, but their speed was incomparable to their other capability, only the same as a peak stage Earth realm fighter.

One troll nearby tries to catch Alex while the others try to attack him, but Alex casually moves his leg and dodges the attacks. He then jumps back and turns his body towards the still shocked group.

"As long as you can dodge their attacks and have a tier 3 weapon, you can kill this monster easily. If you don't have a tier 3 weapon then you have to push it down and attack its mouth and eyes." He calmly said while still dodging the trolls attacks.

"Now, all Sky magus come to me!" Alex shouted.

Aria, Sergei, Tommy, Theo, Oscar and another 5 B aptitude fighter who have just turned into Sky Magus run towards Alex's side. Eyeing the remaining trolls, Alex quickly said.

"Oh... how perfect." Alex said while chuckling. "10 against 10. Let me see your progress, guys. Go!"

As soon as Alex finished speaking, 10 Sky Magus warriors immediately ran towards the trolls, fighting them one by one. Alex calmly observed them fight against the trolls and see their progress.

He didn't even need to see how Aria was doing, not only did she have a level 3 weapon. She as a level 34 dual element Sky Realm Magus was too strong for this cave troll. With one simple [Ice Blast - Tier 2 Ice Spell], she managed to freeze the troll, immobilizing him instantly. She then easily stabbed her two tier 3 daggers into the troll's neck.

As for Sergei, he fought the trolls head-on. Sergei's huge figure looked tiny in front of the troll's massive body, but it didn't seem like it had affected him. He used his special fighting arts skill [Muscle Growth]. His two arms quickly doubled in size as he started swinging his tier 3 hammer [Earth Cracker] at the troll. The troll also clenched and threw its fist when it saw the incoming hammer.

The full power of the mid stage Sky realm Magus struck the troll's fist. Sergei and the troll both took a step back from the impact. But Sergei immediately moved while the troll was still tripping over the side effects. He quickly jumped up and swung the hammer down, smashing the troll's head down to the ground. Seeing the troll's body lying face down on the ground, Sergei continued to swing his hammer at the troll.

BAM!! BAM!! BAM!! 

A loud sound could be heard as Sergei continued to smash the hammer into the troll's head. But the troll's head was tougher than its body, which was the reason Sergei continued to smash. After the fifth hit, green liquid started to come out from its five holes.

Oscar, one of the lightning twins, also looked excited fighting against the troll. He immediately cast his [Energized] spell and then circled around the troll. The huge troll was completely unable to keep up with his erratic movements and could not do anything, standing there petrified like a fool. Oscar had a tier 3 [Lighting Cutter] dagger and with the [Lightning Blade] ability activated, it became the sharpest tier 3 weapon. Oscar attacked the troll by slashing it little by little as he ran around until the troll fell, with blood gushing out from cuts all over its body.

For Theo, who prefers to attack from a distance, he and Tommy work in pairs to take on the two trolls. The two trolls dashed towards them, trying to attack while Tommy immediately used his [Shadow Fiend - Tier 3 Summoning Spell]. Within seconds, two troll sized fiends appeared in front of Tommy and dashed forward to stop the approaching troll. Meanwhile, Theo took out 5 short swords from his storage ring. 

These five short swords were special tier 3 swords he received as the reward from one of the pillars. These five swords worked perfectly with his psychic skills. The swords possessed the ability called [Flying Formation] and with Theo's light element, the swords could fly together in formation and were strengthened by light element. Five short swords quickly flew through the air and pierced through both trolls' eyes.

The other Sky Magus 5 B aptitude found the battles much more difficult but with each of them already having their own special weapon, they also managed to kill their enemies. Their Doomsday Pillars adventure over the past 6 months finally rewarded them each with a tier 3 weapon, which they truly cherished.

And just like that, a dozen trolls were easily crushed by the group. Evan and the 2 dozen Australian fighters who watched the whole fight were shocked in awe at Alex's group strength. Alex decided not to rest and quickly ordered his group to advance even faster. After several other encounters of the troll group, they finally cleared the 31st floor in three hours.

"Advance to the next floor!"
